Which human blood group lacks proteins in the red blood cells?
Blood type O lacks the antigen proteins of A and B. Blood type O is the universal donor.
Desribe how to type blood to detect the abo and rh blood groups?
To type blood according to abo, the lab detects the proteins of the cells to determine whether blood is a b or o. To further type blood into rh- and rh positive, the lab checks antibodies to specific proteins.
What is blood alleles - please explain in easy language and with example?
Blood alleles are the genes that determine what kinds of proteins will be present on the surface of red blood cells, which are called antigens. These alleles determine blood type - A, B, AB or O. There are actually only two proteins that are present in human blood, A and B. Type O blood is an absence of either A or B proteins. Therefore, blood type is determined by the genes you inherit from your parents. All humans carry two alleles. For example, one person may have one allele for A type blood and another allele for no protein (O type). This person will have type A blood. Another person may have one allele for B type blood and another allele for no protein (type O blood) and would be classified as having type B blood. If these two people were to have children together, they would be able to produce children with all four blood types. This is because each parent would contribute one allele to the child. If the child received the A from parent 1 and the B from parent 2, the child would have type AB blood - both the A and the B proteins present on the child's red blood cells. If the child received the A from parent 1 and the O from parent 2, the child would have type A blood. If the child received the O from parent 1 and the B from parent 2, the child would have type B blood. If the child received the O from parent 1 and the O from parent 2, the child would have type O blood - no proteins present on the child's red blood cells.
What are nutrients that help repair blood cells?
Iron, vitamin B 12 and B vitamin folic acid produce red blood cells
How proteins help organs?
Proteins in the cells can be secreted out as intracellular proteins. Hormones, enzymes, and other proteins can be transported via blood stream and acts on distant tissues. when there is an injury or blood leakage appears in our hands lets say, proteins that does the blood clotting arrives there like a police to stop blood flow!
Why O blood group can donate anybody?
O blood has no major proteins that A and B blood have. For example: If someone had B blood with its specific proteins, this person cant receive A blood because it has the specific A blood proteins that will cause bad clotting to stop it. O blood (with no different proteins) wont affect any blood.
Can a person with blood type AB donate blood to a person with blood type A explain?
Each blood type has it's identifying proteins, and will reject blood with the wrong proteins. Type A blood is anti-B, type B blood is anti-A, type O blood has both, and type AB blood has neither. Imagine if someone with AB blood tried to donate to someone with A. AB blood has identifying proteins A and B. The type A blood would recognize the B proteins and kill the cells. The same thing would happen with B, which would recognize the A proteins and kill the cells. Type O blood would recognize and reject both the A and B proteins and reject them. However, if someone who is type AB gives to AB people, their blood does not destroy neither protein A nor B, so it would accept it.
Which human blood group lacks proteins in the red blood cells?
Blood type O lacks the antigen proteins of A and B. Blood type O is the universal donor.
What is the blood type of a person whose plasma contain anti-b clumping proteins?
blood type A
so what exactly is a blood type?
A blood group or blood type is based on the presence or absence of two proteins (A, B) on the surface of red blood cells. Because two proteins are involved, there are four possible combinations or blood types (ABO groups):Type A - Only the A protein is present.Type B - Only the B protein is present.Type AB - Both proteins are present.Type O - Neither protein is present (about 40 percent of the population).
Does a person with blood type b have more blood than a person with blood type a?
No, the only difference is in the shape of certain proteins.
What is the blood type of a person whose plasma contains only anti-B clumping proteins?
blood type A
What role do surface markers play in blood typing?
Different proteins cause different blood types. A and B are two different proteins, as is M and N. O is the absence.
What type of blood type of a person whose plasma contains only anti b clumping proteins?
blood type A
Fibrinogens are the plasma proteins responsible for?
B. the formation of blood clots :)) By simone :) Hi rubyy!
How is your blood type determaned?
There are two important blood types: the ABO blood type and the Rhesus blood type. ABO is the A, B, AB, or O blood type, and the Rhesus type is the + or - usually written after the ABO blood type (eg. AB+ or O-). At the level of your blood, blood type is determined by proteins present on the surface of red blood cells, which circulate around your body delivering oxygen to cells. On the surface of red blood cells is a combination of three surface proteins: A, B, and Rhesus. Blood types code for the presence or absence of these proteins. Blood type A have A type surface proteins but lack B. Blood type B lacks A but has B proteins. Blood type AB has both, and Blood type O has neither A nor B. Rhesus positive exhibit the Rhesus protein, while Rhesus negative lack it. It is these proteins which determine which types of blood you can receive safely. Individuals with A type blood cells cannot be exposed to B type surface proteins safely, so B and AB blood is off the cards for them. O negative blood lacks any of these proteins so can be transfused into any patient, hence the term "universal donor". It is your genes which determine which of these proteins are expressed. As with the majority of genes you have two copies of both the ABO and Rhesus genes, one copy from your mother and one from your father. From each parent you inherent either an A, a B, or an O gene, and also either a Rhesus positive (Rh+) or a Rhesus negative (Rh-) gene. The combination of the two genes you have determines your blood type as follows: AA or AO = A Blood type BB or BO = B Blood type AB = AB blood type OO = O Blood type Rh+Rh+ or Rh+Rh- = Rhesus positive Rh-Rh- = Rhesus negative
Desribe how to type blood to detect the abo and rh blood groups?
To type blood according to abo, the lab detects the proteins of the cells to determine whether blood is a b or o. To further type blood into rh- and rh positive, the lab checks antibodies to specific proteins.
